In Black Widow's post-credits scene, the stage was set for Yelena Belova to target Clint Barton in Hawkeye. After an exciting rooftop battle in the show's fourth episode, the assassin started doing some digging into Kate Bishop last week, learning who the real big bad of the Disney+ series is in the process.
Yelena clearly isn't finished with Clint, and the character has finally received her own character poster ahead of what's certain to be an eventful sixth episode. We also have a handful of new stills from the show; the shots of Yelena and Kate are from "Ronin," but we have a feeling that image of Clint is probably from this Wednesday's season finale.
A recent promo for Hawkeye made it clear that Clint and Kate will have to deal with the Tracksuit Mafia, The Kingpin, and Yelena at Rockefeller Center, but will they make it out of that confrontation alive? It's obvious Kate has a bright future in the MCU, but Clint failing to make it home in time for Christmas definitely feels like a suitably tragic story for the holidays. Fingers crossed we're off target on that one.
Yelena looks a little different here, so we do wonder whether this could be her new look in the MCU moving forward. As of right now, we have no idea what future plans for the character might be.
